Healthy LivingExpand +

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, more than 125 million adults suffer from at least one chronic illness such as high blood pressure, heart disease, chronic pain or anxiety. Caregiving can increase the risk of developing a chronic illness due to increased stress. Healthy Living is a proven program designed to help individuals set personal goals for their health and well-being and identify strategies to successfully achieve them. The program consists of six, two and a half hour workshops, led by trained volunteer facilitators. There is no charge to participate in Healthy Living. To register for the next workshop series or to receive additional information, please contact Susan Solorzano at 702.483.6055 or solorzs@ccf.org.

Next workshop series runs from March 28 - May 2, 12:30 – 3:00 PM

CMA Art LecturesExpand +

1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month from 11 a.m. - Noon

As part of our commitment to brain health, we host the Cleveland Museum of Art's award-winning art lectures designed to enrich people's life experiences. Open to the public, participants in Las Vegas are connected to the museum through live video conferencing. The lectures create an opportunity to view art and artifacts from around the world while sharing in a two-way conversation with museum educators. The Keep Memory Alive program calendar includes information on upcoming lectures.

These events and programs are supported by grants and gifts to Keep Memory Alive, which raises funds exclusively in support of Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health.
